[The effectiveness of the Comptenz electronic analgesic device in dentistry--a pilot study].
This study was undertaken to determine the effectiveness of the Comptenz electronic analgesic device. Fifty (50) patients were used in the study, of which 48 per cent eventually could be totally successfully anaesthetized by using the device. For 36 per cent, however, the device was found to be ineffective. For the rest (16 per cent) the device was only partially successful.
